In the most exciting and quite the worst game of the season, the luck less Baptist team of the Grants Pass Twilight league went down to defeat by a score of 5 to 3 before the fight ing Christian aggregation on high school field last night. The Baptists batted hard, their eight hits Includ ing a triple by Summers and doubles by O. Douglas and Gulnnette, and .deserved to win. Their downfall was brought about by their seven errors, five of which were bunched by Infleld ers in the first iunlng, Trefern being the principal offender; and by their indecision on bases and poor coach ing in the third, which ended a promising rally. Honey caught his first game of the season and his work, like tnat of last year, was high class. He batted .333, A Circus Catch by First llnaenmn Claude Smith. made a run and stole two bases. O. Douglas pitched a good game despite disheartening support, allowing only one earned run. and was a grizzly at bat, clouting out two singles and a doub".e in three times up. The Christian club, weakened by the absence of Faublon and Lnuner, was as peppery as ever. Bratton was hit harder than usual, but with a team behind him such ns he has he "should worry." C. Trimble batted hard and timely. Claude Smith per formed effulgently at first, devouring with ease all kinds of wild and has tily made pegs. The work of young Irvln Smith at short was sensational all through, and in the Inst innin he saved the game for his team when, i with two Baptists down and two on j bases and with 400 male and female dervishes creating pandemonium, he . grabbed McCracken's difficult and torrid grounder and with not an in stant to spare fired the ball with rifle speed to first for the third out. The peg was untrue, but C. Smith made , a great catch, ending the game and , the near-rally and Christian eyes were smiling and Christian hearts were happy. The Score.
